Luke Stokes, yours was a beautiful story of letting go. I remember long ago taking a meteorology course some decades ago and one thing that impressed me profoundly was the concept of the storm surge by coastlines in the hurricane's path. Before the gargantuan storm comes with a great flood across the intertidal zone, first the ocean gets sucked back and when this happens it seems like the beach suddenly extends out a vast distance depending on the contours and depth of the waters off the shoreline. The same thing happens with tsunami, before the crushing waves crash down angrily wrecking havoc and murder on the coast and inland, the water is seemingly sucked out to the horizon and it appears like the beach can extend out for a great distance as far as the eye can see to where the sun might rise or set.
You were brave to let go, at a loss, even though it was a difficult thing to do. I know a lot of people who go to the crypto-casino and struggle with quitting while they're behind, they think if I just throw more money at it, things will turn around, but if your heart is not there, as in the case with that cryptocurrency, you did the right thing in saying goodbye. You might have quit while you were behind, which isn't easy, really. And so the great storm is coming for you. SmartCash https://smartcash.cc/ is going to be your storm surge, you sold that other coin and picked up some Smarties (my nickname for SmartCash). Give it time, nurse it, cultivate it, the hurricane is coming. SmartCash is going to be one of those cryptocurrencies where if you hold onto it for years to come, you will look back with puffed-chest pride and say I made a great move and now I got rewarded prodigiously for it. The SmartCash rewards program is really nice, and every month you hold on to your Smarties you are sure to get a nice little bump.
Thank you for your thoughtful and insightful sharing, I really enjoyed reading your article, there were moments I found it to be heartwarming (because I too struggle with some of the things you go through in a broader context of life) and it certainly pulled on my heart strings, because letting go is hard to do. We humans are hardwired to sometimes not be able to let go, even when we know it's the right thing to do. I hope you continue to acquire SmartCash, and I hope you hold on to them till the day the great hurricane comes and all your dreams come true. If you get a chance sign up for the forum on https://smartcash.cc/ I noticed they are very helpful when it comes to questions being asked, even the most banal questions are answered with politeness and promptness.
Cheers
